Duo jiao is fresh red chilli chopped with salt, packed tight in sealed jars and soured by lactic bacteria. Studies salt it at 10 % and ferment it for weeks to months (60 and 120 days in two of them); the 120-day study ended at pH 4.07–4.26.

At a glance
Duo jiao is fresh red chilli chopped with salt, packed tight in sealed jars and soured by lactic bacteria. Studies salt it at 10 % and ferment it for weeks to months (60 and 120 days in two of them); the 120-day study ended at pH 4.07–4.26. Made in 4 steps over 2 months – 4 months. The longest step, lactic fermentation, takes 2–3.9 months (Liu Y. et al. 2025) and runs at 20–30 °C (Li K. et al. 2026). Salt is 10 % (Li K. et al. 2026). Weissella and Lactobacillus do most of the fermenting.
Huanggong chilli duo jiaoEster levels rose through the 120 days and stayed above the other two varieties; the authors call about 60 days best for a rich acid and ester aroma.
Millet chilli duo jiaoHolds colour, crisp texture and a floral aroma.
Long slender chilli duo jiaoFresh fruity aroma; suited to shorter fermentation.
Safety
In one study the fermentation step cut field pesticide residues on the chillies by 16.3–90.0 %, after washing had already removed 24.8–62.8 %.
National Geographic reports that by 1765 local historians recorded chillies used to flavour sauces, vinegar, savoury oils and preserved vegetables in Hunan. It does not name chopped salted chillies.
